Adventure

Bring the family to Barcelona, Spain! Overflowing with culture, this modern city is sure to delight!

One of the best ways to get a feel for Barcelona is to hop on the Barcelona Bus Turístic. With three different routes, this bus takes you all over the city and makes several stops at the main tourist destinations! Be sure to take the kids to Parc Güell. Located on Carmel Hill, Parc Güell is one of Gaudí’s famous works. With extremely unique and colorful architecture, this park will leave the kids amazed! If you take interest in Gaudí’s style, check out Sagrada Familia, or The Temple of the Holy Family. Still a work-in-progress, this Temple has three epic facades and draws visitors from all over the world. You might even enjoy biking along the ocean or exploring the famed street La Rambla. Filled with souvenir stores, crafty vendors, and delightful street entertainers, your kids will be more than amused!

“We stumbled upon Las Ramblas of the city and walked through to see many vendors selling all kinds of things from birds, rabbits, flowers, and food. There were many impressive street performers dressed in old Romanic style of Greek and Spartan soldiers…We took the tube to Sagrada Familia where a cathedral, in the style of Gaudi, is currently being constructed and revamped. It has been taking them so many years (I believe over 100) to do what they have done so far. It is magnificent to look at once you get used to the cranes and scaffolds everywhere. It´s colorful and curvy, just like the other buildings, which is odd to see on a cathedral. They were closing down for the day so we didn´t get to climb any of the spires or see the interior, but the exterior was magnificent on its own anyway. I´m not sure I like the colors but it´s good to see the old blending in with the new” (more…)

RealTraveler Traveling Nomad shares adventures off of the cruise ship:

“We hired a taxi driver who took us from the ship to the famous Jain Temple in Bombay which was an absolutely beautiful visit, surrounded by people who are so respective of life that they may tape their mouths shut so that they may not accidentally swallow an insect. The atmosphere, or energy is a better word, in the temple was really something to feel, brief as it was. Then we went to visit the Hanging Gardens, the main garden/park in Bombay. It is a misnomer because there are no actual hanging plants. The garden is constructed over the main water reservoir in Bombay which is why it is called “hanging”. The gardens were lovely and there were many whimsical topiaries, and people were playing tag and having picnics on the grass. It was really hot so we then went on to visit Gandhi’s home and museum. To see where he lived, sit in his library and see the books that he read, read his correspondence, and view the dioramas that depicted his life of nonviolent social protest was really very special. We ate at a restaurant that was recommended by someone on board ship and it was delicious” (more…)
